Quadriceps angle as an outcome measure for structural integrity following total knee arthroplasty in individuals with severe knee osteoarthritis
Purpose
Total knee arthroplasty (TKA) is routinely performed for pain relief and to improve performance of the knee in individuals with severe knee osteoarthritis (OA). The quadriceps angle (Q-angle) is a key component of knee joint stability. However, there is a dearth of literature evaluating Q-angle as an outcome measure after TKA in individuals with severe knee OA.
Objectives
The objective of the study was to assess the Q-angle as an outcome measure before and after TKA and to find the correlation of Q-angle with pain, quadriceps strength, and knee flexion range of motion (ROM) after TKA in individuals with severe knee OA.
Methods
The Q-angles of 34 individuals (male: female = 17:17) were measured using standardized procedures. Pain, quadriceps strength, and knee flexion ROM were measured. The measurements were taken preoperatively (one day before surgery), and postoperatively at the sixth week and third month after TKA.
Results
The mean Q-angle was 19.17° (SD = 1.92°) before TKA, 16.06° (SD = 1.87°) at the sixth week and 13.43° (SD = 1.77°) at the third month after TKA. Significant linear correlations were noted between the Q-angle and pain, quadriceps strength, and knee flexion ROM following TKA.
Conclusion
The Q-angle was measured before and after TKA using a standardized clinical goniometric method. Understanding the Q-angle before and after TKA and its relationship with various clinical and functional variables is imperative in clinical practice for orthopedic surgeons and rehabilitation professionals.
期刊介绍:
Journal of Orthopaedics aims to be a leading journal in orthopaedics and contribute towards the improvement of quality of orthopedic health care. The journal publishes original research work and review articles related to different aspects of orthopaedics including Arthroplasty, Arthroscopy, Sports Medicine, Trauma, Spine and Spinal deformities, Pediatric orthopaedics, limb reconstruction procedures, hand surgery, and orthopaedic oncology. It also publishes articles on continuing education, health-related information, case reports and letters to the editor. It is requested to note that the journal has an international readership and all submissions should be aimed at specifying something about the setting in which the work was conducted. Authors must also provide any specific reasons for the research and also provide an elaborate description of the results.
